MANCHESTER, Aug. 10-The Gtdrdidn says:
business has been moderate. The market is
quiet and the impression prevails that buyers
both here and abroad are acting as il they an
tlclpated lower prices, their hopes being founded
on the prospect of a large American cotton
crop. Producers, however, confident OF their
power to retain whatever advantage is possible
in the decline of cotton, and seeing the margin
is yet Improbable, will not enter into long en-
gagementS which are not covered by immediate
profit. There is poor inquiry for export yarns.
Some manufacturers have bought little more
freely since Friday, low offers chen made having
been subsequently awaited of. They are not
now anxious to extend their purchases. The
cloth market is quiet. Some moderate orders
for shirtings have been put through at Fridays
lowest rates. In some cases offers then refused
are now accepted. High reed printing and
other furnishing goods are steady and quiet.
Heavy goods are slightly easier Sales have
been fairly numerous, but do not make Large
total.n

Green & CO. report on cotton futures says:
With some irregularity at times prevailing
the general course of the market has been
toward an easier basis. Private crop accounts
have improved somewhat, and the report from
the Agricultural Bureau proving quite favorable
there seemed to be want of confidence, with
some inclination at times to crowd the market
Offerings, however, found pretty good sale at
shrinkage of 5Gl7 points, and while the local
feeling is on the whole bearish it does not as
yet assume radical form August dropped 10
points again under the pressure apparently OF
long cotton, and afterwara made small re-
covery. Spots were more active, principally for
export

CHICAGO. Aug. 10.--Cern is king. Secretary
Stone announced from the Board of Trade gal
lery to-day that traders in corn would tomorrow
take charge of the wheat pit, while the wheat
traders would take the places lately occupied
necessary by greatly increased trading in corn
while the wheat crowd has become so small as
to require but little room The hot wind which
blew through the great Exchange room had the
same effect on prices that il had on the mer
curry. Everything went up. Operators swelter
ing with heat were excited. The Signal Service
showed no rain in the corn belt, no rain to help
the coming acreage of wheat, no rains to help
pastures Reports Of ruined fields were more
numerous ana forcble than ever Outside or
ders were to buy corn and local spectators
climbed over each other in their efforts to pur
chase with receivers also taking a hand May
and Septelnher corn was bought in tremendous
quantities by the crowd nearly all day. On
buge3 rhe crowd would sell, but would load up
again on a break of 15GNc. Government re-
BortS, while not as un favorable as expected by
many operators, iDdu :ed some selling at higher
prices but considering the large shortage in the
hay crop there were operators who believed in
the present, If not higher, prices for corn. The
market opened excited and 16Gn55c higher than
Yesterday. advanced with slight changes Of M6n
